Managing Stress for the Holidays with EFT

By Eileen Lichtenstein - Peak-Performance-Success Coach
Before you get started, choose a number 1-10 (10 the highest) your perceived rate of stress on this topic. Find the tapping points and my intro to EFT (short) video here:  balanceandpower.com/eft.php 

Here is my simple tapping script for this: 
 
Set up phrase (karate chop or massage on upper chest).
-Even tho I am feeling soo stressed about going to __ for the holidays, I fully and deeply love & respect myself
-Even tho I know this happens to me every year and it's ridiculous to become so stressed, I fully and deeply love and respect myself.
-Even tho I know the holidays are about gratefulness & peace (inner and outer!)) and I feel full of dread, I know I can get thru this.
round of tapping (see points in link above): so stressed with holidays
round of tapping: being grateful
round of tapping: get thru it!
check in with your stress level about the holdays and I bet it's much lower.
Repeat this everyday, visualize positive celebrations, take time for yourself and keep up the gratefulness lists.

By Eileen Lichtenstein - Peak-Performance-Success Coach
Hmm, optimal productivity, creativity and  confidence in ten tips? There are more courses and books on the subject than we can keep track of.  After writing a book and several courses myself, reading books on "the work" and participating in brilliant  trainings, I will now share with you the ten optimal tips for optimal productivity, creativity and confidence.  

1.  Listen to and follow your intuition.

2.  Stay within your integrity- no matter what.

3.  Love and laugh!

4.  Forgive yourself  for mistakes, let go and move on. 

5.  Take time each day  to relax, to dream.

6.  Be a great listener.

7.  Stay healthy by practicing extreme self-care. (diet, sleep, exercise, relaxation techniques).

8.  Stop procrastinating and take action- to move forward or to drop the project.

9.  Begin each day with positive visualizations of successful outcomes of your goals.

10.  Believe in yourself and your goals; create affirmations and post them onto mirrors, in an accessible notebook and in the car.


 In order for these tips to be effective one must truly have the intention to succeed.  Find out more about this subject on my website www.balanceandpower.com and  contact me for a complimentary phone consult to discuss this and related topics.

Keys to Having a Successful Life

By Eileen Lichtenstein - Peak-Performance-Success Coach
Persistence, determination, and perseverance are all closely related and are the keys to having a successful life.
 
Persistence is holding on to something important and not letting go despite hindering circumstances.  

Determination can be defined as firmness of purpose; resolve.

Perseverance is commitment, hard work, patience, and endurance. 
Perseverance is being able to handle challenges calmly and without complaint. Perseverance is trying again and again until you succeed.
 
Put perseverance into action:
  • When you don’t get the results you want, try again and again.
  • Stay calm when something upsets you.
  •  Work a little harder or  longer on difficult tasks.
 Perseverance is about finishing what you start. Ninety percent of all failure comes from not starting or quitting too soon.
 
Thomas Edison said, “Many of life’s failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.”

Brian Tracy said, “Sometimes your greatest asset is simply your ability to stay with it longer than anyone else.” It is difficult to persevere if you are tired. When your “battery” is run down  , your mind is susceptible to negative thinking. In these circumstances, you are more likely to react, blow things out of proportion, and say things that you will regret. Watch for the signs that you need to recharge your “battery,” such as: tiredness, being easily frustrated, tension in your muscles, and feeling discouraged to name
just a few.
 
Here a a few  ways to "recharge":
  • Take a mental break: read or listen to inspirational or motivational material, spend some time on a hobby, call a friend, or listen to calming music.
  • Take a physical break: rest, take a nap, go for a walk, eat something healthy, take some deep breaths, or exercise.

Need someone to be accountable to-brainstorm with?  Need extra encouragement and strategies to take action? Need guided success visualizations and Emotional Freedom Techniques to overcome and transform fear?  

Contact me for a complimentary telephone or Skype consult.  
My interactive manual for achieving success  includes my own as well as  client's success stories as well as  tips, strategies and  techniques to be 
happier and more successful!

Powerful Phrasing for Resilience!

By Eileen Lichtenstein - Peak-Performance-Success Coach
We've all heard about the Law of Attraction, the power of positive thinking, the power of positive visualization and words.  With that said,  many of us are still using  negative words-phrases  that have become  personal speech patterns and habits.  Our subconcious is always paying attention and certain phrases, especially double negatives trigger negative outcomes. I've been reviewing the power of positive phrasing and will share a few common negative takes and their positive edition with you here:

  • "That's not bad" becomes  "That's quite good."
  • "No problem" becomes"You're very welcome", sure, I'll be happy to!"
  • "That's bad" becomes  "That's not good."
  • "Don''t worry" becomes  "You'll be fine."
  • "Put some effort into it" becomes  "Let's put some energy into it."
  • "It's too hard" becomes  "It's not easy."
  • "I'm sick" becomes "I don't feel well."
  • "I forgot"  becomes "I didn't remember."
  • "I've been working hard" becomes "I've been working well."
  • "Don't cry" becomes "That's OK.."
This switch is most easily facilitated with a buddy- someone whom you're often with and agrees to do this for a while..without being judgemental.
Do you have some additional phrases to switch-up? Please do let us know!
